As the world marked November 20 as International Day of Children, an 11-year-old boy from Khairpur was sexually abused and brutally murdered. One can only imagine the trauma the victim’s family experiences. According to the report ‘Cruel Numbers 2020’, there was a four percent increase in the number of child abuse cases between 2019 and 2020.
To make matters worse, most perpetrators walk away scott-free because of how normalised victim-blaming is. The government should enforce the laws that have been made to curtail child abuse.
